'I just want to go home': La Mesa security guard speaks from Tijuana prison
Nearly three months later, a La Mesa security guard being held in Tijuana on gun charges is speaking out for the first time. On March 23, Rodney Dantzler Jr., who works in private security, finished a shift, before getting on the I-5, headed to a friend's home in Chula Vista. He says he missed his exit, and ended up at the border, where he made a request, but wasn't allowed to make a U-turn. Inside the trunk was a gun he was licensed to carry in the US. Mexican officials arrested him on gun charges.
